Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

Now that Yi Zhonghai is dead, he doesn't have to act anymore. Plus, Jia Zhang was so excessive that his emotions that had been there for years suddenly erupted.

In anger, Jia Dongxu slapped Jia Zhang several times.

Chapter 403 Banggeng Awakens

After feeling relieved, Jia Dongxu's eyes changed completely when he looked at Jia Zhangshi. He didn't care about Jia Zhangshi's curse at all.

He said coldly, "Jia Zhang, if you say another word, I will starve you to death."

Jia Zhang shut up instantly. Compared to dignity, eating is more important.

"Now do you understand what I'm saying?"

Jia Zhang nodded.

Then Jia Dongxu told Bang Geng about his injury. "Because you've offended the most people, your enemies might retaliate against you. That's why the police are looking for you to find out who has a deep grudge against you. Don't tell anyone about those unreasonable things, okay?"

"I know, I know." Jia Zhang nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Only then did Jia Dongxu feel relieved and went outside to invite Su Long and the others in.

"Comrade Su Long, I've already explained it to my mother, so you can just ask without worry."

Su Long nodded and went into the house to ask questions.

This time, Jia Zhang was indeed much more normal and no longer said those unreasonable words.

But when Su Long asked her what conflicts she had with the people in the yard, Jia Zhang's answer surprised them.

Looking at the densely written transcripts that filled seven or eight pages, the police officer in charge of recording felt a sharp pain in his wrists.

This happened only in the past six months, and Jia Zhang was still talking incessantly. For a moment, several people looked at Jia Dongxu with a hint of pity and admiration in their eyes.

It's not easy for Jia Dongxu to have such a mother.

Interrupting Jia Zhang's words, Su Long turned to ask Jia Dongxu, "Does every household in the courtyard have some grudges against your family?"

Jia Dongxu nodded awkwardly. Although he didn't want to admit it, that was the fact.

Su Long sighed, "Oh, this is difficult. Comrade Jia Dongxu, although your mother offended all the residents in the courtyard, it was just a conflict between neighbors. It's not a big deal, but it's not a small matter either. You also came to apologize afterwards."

No one else said anything, at most they just stopped associating with your family. In my opinion, it's unlikely that a neighbor hired a killer. But that's not certain, we need to investigate further."

Hearing this, Jia Dongxu's heart sank. He actually knew that it was unlikely that his neighbor would do such a thing.

"Don't be too discouraged. Maybe Banggeng might have some clues." Seeing Jia Dongxu's sad face, Su Long also spoke to comfort him.

Jia Dongxu nodded, but didn't take it to heart. He didn't think Banggeng could provide any useful clues.

Then Jia Dongxu followed Su Long to inquire about the situation from house to house, but they didn't get much.

Many people felt happy when they knew that Banggeng had broken a finger, but they never showed it.

After some inquiries without any results, Su Long said goodbye and said that he would come again after get off work in the evening to ask other people.

Jia Dongxu sent Su Long and the others off with great gratitude. After returning to the house, Jia Zhang immediately stood up tremblingly.

The slaps she received just now made her realize that Yi Zhonghai was already dead, and she was nothing more than a useless person in this family.

If Jia Dongxu really didn't support her or simply sent her back to her rural hometown, she would have no way to do anything. After all, she didn't have a city hukou, so she should have returned to the countryside.

Jia Dongxu just glanced at her, then drank three large glasses of water in one breath. Without saying a word, he turned around and left back to the steel mill.

This made Jia Zhang feel relieved immediately. She was really scared just now, fearing that Jia Dongxu would abandon her.

"No, I can't count on Jia Dongxu to take care of me in my old age. He no longer sees me as his mother. I have to find a way out for myself quickly. He Daqing, I'm going to take care of you."

Jia Zhang stuck out her tongue, her eyes revealing a look of determination to win.

……

In the hospital, the unconscious Bang Geng opened his eyes with great effort. He felt confused and drowsy, as if he had not slept for several days and nights.

The pain in his head and fingers made him, a child, feel like he was dying.

Bang Geng's first reaction was the same as most people's. He called out, "Mom? Mom?"

The voice was extremely weak, but fortunately Qin Huairu had been staying by his side. After hearing the faint sound, she immediately looked at Bang Geng. Seeing that he had opened his eyes, she immediately held his left hand.

"Banggeng, my poor Banggeng, mom is here, here." Qin Huairu sobbed, her tone revealing deep sadness.

"Mom, why am I in the hospital? My head and hands hurt so much," Banggeng said with some difficulty. He was drugged and had lost too much blood, so he was very weak.

Qin Huairu didn't know how to answer Banggeng's question, so she could only put his hand on her face and told him, "It's okay, Banggeng, it'll be fine, everything will be fine. You should have a good rest first, and then we'll go home."

Banggeng nodded with difficulty, and then closed his eyes again. His head was really dizzy and the effect of the drug had not yet worn off.

Time flies and it's time to get off work.

When people who worked outside returned home, they heard the news that Banggeng had had a finger cut off.

Many people were shocked. It was the first time that a child in the courtyard had suffered such a cruel attack.

Everyone's first reaction was that a human trafficking gang was committing crimes nearby, and they warned their children not to go out and play in the near future.

Jiang Fan was also quite surprised when he heard the news. He was sure that this was not done by his family.

"I haven't even made a move yet, and Bang Geng has been destroyed. Isn't he the lucky son of Siheyuan? Is he so unlucky?"

Jiang Fan shook his head, as long as this matter had nothing to do with his family.

After putting his things in the house, he told his family that he would be going on a business trip for a few days the next day.

Shen Yue asked, "Can you confirm how many days it will take? Do you want to prepare some dry food?"

"I'm not sure, probably no more than five days. We'll just go to a few nearby communes to repair tractors. There aren't many of them, and the factory even provided us with a vehicle. Let's prepare some dry food; the food in the countryside isn't as good as ours."

Even the villages around the old city may not have any food stored at this time. If you go to the countryside, you may not know whether there is anything to eat.

After talking about this, Jiang Fan asked about Banggeng.

Shen Yue and the others at home didn't know what exactly happened. They only knew that someone came to the yard looking for Qin Huairu in the morning.

Not long after, Jia Dongxu came back with several police officers. After asking them about their feud with Jia Zhang, he left.

"But they said they'll come back later to find out more about the situation with those of you who have jobs."

"Okay, I got it. By the way, brother, I won't be home these few days. You can sleep in my room. I'm worried that thieves will come and steal things." Jiang Fan said to his elder brother Jiang Ping'an.

"Okay, I'll go show you the house for two days."

Jiang Ping'an agreed immediately.

Chapter 404 Liu Guangtian's Opportunity

He Daqing only learned about Bang Geng's incident after returning. He smiled slightly and thought to himself, "This group of people are quite reliable. My old brothers really didn't lie to me. It's just that the broken finger was a bit brutal."

Since he couldn't teach Jia Zhang a lesson directly, he could only resort to using a stick as a second best option.

According to him, he wanted to teach Banggeng a lesson, preferably making him unable to get out of bed for ten days or half a month.

This would make Jia Zhang feel distressed and also distract her attention.

If Jia Zhang is sensible, this matter will be over. If she is not, then just wait for a while and find someone to deal with Jia Zhang again.

Anyway, he is just an old bastard and doesn't care about character or not.

However, Sha Zhu felt a little flustered after knowing this. He signaled He Daqing with his eyes, but the other party did not respond at all. He could only suppress the worries and doubts in his heart.

Not long after, Su Long came to the courtyard again, followed by Jia Dongxu's family except Jia Zhang.

Although Banggeng woke up, he was clueless. Apart from the smelly rag, he had no memory of anything else.

After coming back again, Su Long approached everyone at work to ask questions.

Of course, that didn't lead to anything. The culprit, He Daqing, didn't know whether it was facial paralysis or mental fortitude, but he didn't show any flaws at all. Even Sha Zhu acted like everyone else, without any problems.

This gave Su Long a headache, and there was a hint of guilt in his eyes when he looked at Jia Dongxu.

After Su Long and others left, Jia Dongxu's family was dejected and extremely sad, as if their father had died.

"Wow, Dongxu, why is Banggeng's life so miserable? Last year, he was killed for eating two sparrows, and this year, he even broke a finger for sparrows again."

During the day, Qin Huairu found out that Banggeng went out to catch sparrows, which instantly broke her defense.

"Sparrow! Sparrow! Is there a conflict between our family and you? Nothing good ever comes of having anything to do with it."

Jia Dongxu's eyes were red, his face flushed with bloodshot, and he punched the table angrily.

After a moment, he collapsed like a deflated ball.

Suddenly, the Jia family fell into a deathly silence. No one dared to say a word, and the only sounds were the breathing and heartbeats of a few people.

Late at night.

Sha Zhu found He Daqing and whispered, "How could you let someone do such a cruel thing? You broke Bang Geng's finger, and he's just a child."

Perhaps it’s because he became a father, even though Shazhu has no feelings for Banggeng now, he still feels quite sympathetic towards his experience.

"Child? You are still too young to see that Banggeng is not a good kid. There is hatred in that kid's eyes, hatred for our family. If one day he grows up and has the ability, he will definitely not let our family go." He Daqing said lightly.

Sha Zhu frowned, a little bit unconvinced. "Is he really as evil as you say? And with Bang Geng's appearance, what future can he have?"

He Daqing said confidently, "Don't worry about it. I have never misjudged anyone in my life."

"What about Yi Zhonghai?"

These five words successfully earned Sha Zhu a slap in the face.

"Anyway, this matter was handled by me, your father, and you are the only one who knows about it. Be careful when facing the police and don't expose yourself."

"understood."

Sympathy is sympathy, but if Sha Zhu is asked to choose between Bang Geng and He Daqing, he will definitely not choose Bang Geng. After all, He Daqing is his biological father.

Banggeng is just the neighbor's kid, and his surname is not Wang, so there is no need to care about him so much.

Liu family, Liu Guangtian is not interested in Banggeng’s affairs, but he is in a very happy mood now.

In the evening he heard a piece of news, a piece of good news that was a golden opportunity for him.

Jiang Fan was going on a business trip, and he would be gone for at least three days. This meant that no one would be in Jiang Fan's house for the next three nights.

Isn't this a good opportunity for him to take action?

He had figured it out these days: Jiang Daniu and his wife rarely asked their child to hand over his salary. This meant that Jiang Fan had kept all of his monthly salary of just over fifty yuan for the past two and a half years.

Liu Guangtian calculated carefully and found that Jiang Fan's salary in the past two years was at least 1500 yuan. Adding some miscellaneous income, it was close to 2,000 yuan.

Moreover, Jiang Fan has no bad habits and doesn't spend much money. At most, he could have spent 500 yuan in the past two years. It can be said that there is a high possibility that Jiang Fan has a huge sum of money of about 1500 yuan hidden in his house.

When Liu Guangtian thought that he would soon have so much money, he was so excited that he couldn't close his mouth, and a laugh jumped out from the corner of his mouth.

This made Liu Guangfu, who was standing by, involuntarily wrap the quilt tighter.

The next day, He Daqing looked out through the window and indeed did not see Jia Zhang washing clothes, which made him nod with relief.

"It seems that attacking Bang Geng was the right move. Jia Zhang really doesn't want to harass me anymore. It's just a pity that I threatened Jia Zhang at the time. Otherwise, I wouldn't have lowered my dignity to bully a child. I could have just found someone to break Jia Zhang's leg."

He Daqing whispered that he could finally feel happy today.

And is it really because of the Bang Geng incident that Jia Zhangshi stopped harassing He Daqing?

In fact, it was not the case. She was just scared by Jia Dongxu's slaps yesterday. She was worried that if she behaved like a jerk again in the next two days, Jia Dongxu would completely turn against her, so she planned to hide for two days.

This was also a skill that Jia Zhang usually used. It was the same in the past. After being taught a lesson by Jia Dongxu about something, she would always stay quiet for two days, giving people the impression that she had corrected her mistake, and then do it again.

This is the current situation, and there is an even more important factor, which is that Jia Zhang no longer intends to adopt a conciliatory policy.

She made up her mind to use force and find an opportunity to kill He Daqing directly.

By the time the matter is settled, He Daqing will have no choice but to acknowledge it.

In order to implement this plan perfectly, Jia Zhang used her brain, which had not been used for a long time, and racked her brains to think of a feasible plan.

She would not go to He Daqing before this plan came out.

Just as she was thinking carefully, Qin Huairu's voice interrupted her, "Jia Zhang, don't you like washing clothes? Go and wash these clothes."

Following the sound, I saw that the clothes in the basin were covered with dark red patterns. They were the clothes that Banggeng wore yesterday.
